Drifting

Sometimes it is a lot of fun seeing the things my son does or the things in which he becomes interested. The things with which he identifies and calls his own. My four year old son’s latest obsession is drifting.

Drifting – A type of precision driving where the driver intentionally over steers, producing a controlled slide through turns, while maintaining vehicle control and a high exit speed.

Doesn’t matter if it is his HotWheels toy car, a racecar in a video game, his bicycle or even a shopping cart, he can make it ‘drift’ and he loves doing it. So much so that we’ve almost had to ban him from pushing the shopping carts in the grocery store. He has had carts land on top of him, he has ended up on top of an over turned cart and has knocked more than a few items of the shelves. And, yes, his favorite movies are The Fast And Furious series.

I hope he either out grows it or masters it by the time he is old enough to drive but until then it is a lot of fun watching him drift and enjoying his favorite movies with him.

Crushed Bike

Never leave your bike in the drive way.  Also, when you have kids of your own, always make sure the drive way is clear of your kids toys before backing up.  (Sorry for backing over your bike with the truck son.  Don’t worry, I will fix it.  — Love Dad)

Squirt’s First Time To Placencia

Placencia is a small beach village here in Belize.  One of the better beaches in Belize actually.  It is about a 3 hour road trip from where we live so we don’t go out there often but I can definitely say that Squirt and our daughter are completely at home on the beach.
